Anyone know of a breeder who might have point of lay or young hen Australorps available? Looking for NPIP farm with the true Australorp curious, gentle personality and good laying ability? Alternatively, a similar strain of Black Orpingtons?
Warm thanks for your thoughts!
Have fallen in love with Mille Fleur bantam Cochins. Is anyone aware of a breeder who might sell teenager pullets or young hens (one or more)?
Grateful for suggestions!
Such lovely birds at the Ohio National— anyone know of a breeder who might sell one or more of their less-than-SOP grow out birds or extra show quality birds? So in love with the breed and variety!
